Summary: Disappointed with the dark emotions
Review: I couldn't find any romance in this book. There were too many ill-feelings, hate, misunderstandings and animosity between the two characters. Very disappointed even with the quick ending how both characters resolved their anger and discovered that they loved each other only lasted a couple of paragraphs. It was such a downer and nothing in the book brought any positive feelings. I enjoy other Marton books, but please remember that these are "romance books" not "negative, I hate you" that went on during the majority of the book.

Summary: TONI'S REVIEW
Review: I want to share this great review with you. It was written by Toni Kroening, and she's given me permission to share it.Toni said:
"Cole Cameron's Revenge" came in the mail after Christmas, giving me a nudge to keep my dreams alive. My head has been filled with interest rates and taxes lately.
Your book did the impossible. It enabled me to get away from it all and still remember what is really important.
As a reader, you kept me captivated and it was hard to put down. I was able to return to whatever scene I left without losing the story. That's talent.
As a writer, you impressed me again. I loved the prologue and the set up. You promised me a story with enough meat and came through at the end. Underneath all the anger and the horrible words they said to one another, it boiled down to the love they have. It was superbly written."

Summary: Rotten Hero, Sympathetic but Not Very Bright Heroine
Review: Nine years ago in Liberty, Georgia, Cole Cameron, bad boy about town, made love to Faith Davenport. It was the only time for her and that was enough, but Cole never learned about the pregnancy, because he'd been having an affair with a married woman and when he tried to break it off, she told the police that he'd broken into her place and Cole had to leave town. Cole didn't exactly have the best up bringing on the planet. His mother died in childbirth and his father blamed him, always treated him like dirt, treating his brother Ted like the chosen one. When he fled, he asked Ted to take care of Faith. Two years later Cole gets a letter and from Ted saying he's married Faith and Cole is so angry he stays away until Ted dies, then he comes home to seek his revenge on Faith. You know, I have so much more that I could say about this book, but since I hated the hero, if you could call him that, I figure I better stop right here. Wait, I've got to say a little more. Cole is about as rotten to Faith as a man can get, but she keeps coming back for more. Yech. And how come, if she knew her lawyer hated her some much, didn't she fire him? She had eight years to find an attorney she could live with. So there you have it, Rotten hero, sympathetic but not very bright heroine, only two stars from me.

Summary: 4.5 STARS! I Highly Recommend!
Review: The prologue drew me in fast and once I was hooked, I could not put this book down until it was over. By page fifty, I had cried so much my eyes were puffy and red. Sandra Marton brings these characters to life. She lets you see what they are thinking and I felt like I understood their decisions by reading about their internalized feelings. The hero and heroine are so right for each other but their wrong conclusions about the past make them star-crossed lovers. The attraction they have for one another sizzles and I even felt my stomach flip when he'd kiss her. My emotions were so caught up in this novel but... The ending would have been perfect had the characters feelings been revealed to the reader. However, at the most vital scene, Sandra Marton stops revealing the character's feelings to the reader. Instead there is dialogue between the characters and the secrets are revealed with out the reader ever knowing how the other truly feels about the revelation. This makes the end unrealistic and it falls flat. A few lines of internalized feelings would have made this a five-star book, and because it comes so close, I would have liked to give it 4.5 stars. I highly recommend this novel because, even though the ending falls slightly short of perfect, this book is a great read with three-dimensional characters, an interesting plot, and great pacing.

Summary: A compelling read
Review: This is a wonderful book, full of depth and heart. The story is compelling and the characters and their emotions are beautifully drawn. I highly recommend this to any reader looking for something more than a read-it-and-forget-about-it experience. This one will linger with you.
